Abstract

Optical wireless communications have attracted widespread attention in the traditional power industry because of the advantages of large spectrum resources, strong confidentiality, and freedom from traditional electromagnetic interference. This paper mainly summarizes the major classification and frontier development of power industry optical wireless technologies, including the indoor and outdoor channel characteristics of power industry optical wireless communication system, modulation scheme, the performance of hybrid power line, and indoor wireless optical communications system. Furthermore, this article compares domestic and foreign experiments, analyzes parameters for instance transmission rate, and reviews different application scenarios such as power wireless optical positioning and monitoring. In addition, in view of the shortcomings of traditional power technology, optical wireless power transfer technology is proposed and combined with unmanned aerial vehicles to achieve remote communication. At last, the main challenges and possible solutions faced by power industry wireless optical technologies are proposed.

  • An energy transfer efficiency above 0.7 can be achieved within a distance of 650 cm when a reflector is used.

    “For example, a comparative study suggests that an energy transfer efficiency above 0.7 can be achieved within a distance of 650 cm when a reflector is used, significantly extending the effective distance of this technology (Ding et al., 2020).”

  • The transmission efficiency of a mono-wavelength laser remains relatively stable regardless of increase in distance.

    “However not yet used for powering implanted implants this attribute suggests that the transmission efficiency of a mono-wavelength laser remains relatively stable regardless of the increase in distance (Ding et al., 2020).”

  • The use of lasers in optical charging does not induce electromagnetic interference (EMI) in existing radio communications.

    “Additionally, the use of such lasers does not induce electromagnetic interference (EMI) in existing radio communications, providing another advantage over RF-based systems (Ding et al., 2020).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
